Sudhakaran has courted controversy with his loose talks earlier too. Recently he made a remark targeting the Sabarimala Ayyappa temple priests by stating that the donkeys that carry goods at Sabarimala had more grace. He also remarked that priests and godmen do not wear underwear. Sudhakaran's statement that 90% of IAS officers are inefficient had also triggered protests.
